Go for it. Support the fight. And it isn’t a bad looking symbol. I love it! I buy things to support breast cancer sometimes because it’s pink and cute!

I agree that if you or your mother or a close friend/relative had breast cancer and the ribbon has a significant meaning to you then go for it. If you just want to show that you support the research than just donate some money. After all, think about why you are doing it; to be noticed or to honor someone. Someone on here once had a blue ribbon tattoo with butterfly wings on it (so the ribbon was the body of the butterfly). I thought it turned out real nice.

if it means something to you go for it. aslong as you won’t regret it in the near future.
you should get a little extra detail done aswell with it.that would look pretty.
hope it goes well

if you have had b.c. or are a huge advocate go for it, i have considered a go red dress because at 17 i found out i have a very rare heart condition.

Have you had breast cancer or someone close to you? If not, what would be the significance to you?
I support breast cancer research, but to tattoo that symbol on my body (for me) would mean I’d had a close encounter with the disease.

If you must get a tattoo then its one of the better ones to get. How ever the money you spend getting the tattoo would be better used for the research and helping those affected by it.

i dont think you should be asking other ppl, if its what you want why do others opinions matter?

I would say yes if your or someone close to you has been through that situation. Me and 9 others in my family went in and got the breast cancer ribbon, in memory of my aunt who passed away from it. So if it means something to you then go for it!

If you are a survivor it sounds nice. If not…not so much.

Ok, this is definatly one of those questions that you cannot get the answer from anyone but YOU! If you do take someone elses suggestion, wether its yes or know or even where to get it, later on down the line you have a huge chance of completely hating it and ending up with the horrible feeling of regret. Since you are questioning it to the point of askin bout it online I would say take at least 2 weeks before getting it and think bout the pros, the cons, and your reason behind it. Is it because you know someone that had it? Did you go through that? Do you just support the cause? Are you exspressing something with it? Also you should think bout what you want exatly, do you just want the ribbon? Do you want something a little more elaborete that will exspress more reasoning and meaning behind it? Why were you thinking bout your wrist or ankle? If you get it on your wrist how could that possibly affect future career or job choices. Some employers dont allow any visible tatoos, of any kind. There are many things to think about and from different angles too. I definatly would say to wait a couple weeks before you do something so permenent since you are questioning it.

If you’ve had a close encounter with the disease, sure. It is a great symbol to display your strength.
If not, use that money to donate to a cancer research foundation.

Why don’t you ask yourself if you WANT the breast cancer ribbon tattoo?
November 6th, 2009 at 4:46 pm
If thats what you want then get it. No one here can tell you if you should or shouldn’t. Its your body.

Take the money you would have spent on the tattoo and donate it to the American Cancer Society. That way you’ll actually be doing something that will aid in finding a cure.

Figure out exactly what you want to get – and where you want to get it – and wait 6 months. If in six monthls you really want to same tatoo in the same spot, get it. If your opinion has changed obviously you aren’t commited enough to the tatoo and have no business getting it yet. If you are going to have this tatoo forever, 6 months is not too long to put off getting one.
